Sourceforge sometimes replies with that in a 302 redirect. We should probably just accept and silently ignore that content-range field for other values. [Impact] Issue breaks and other services that respond with a Content-Range header in a 302 redirect, or any non 416 one. [Test Case] Run /usr/lib/apt/apt-helper download-file -o debug::acquire::http=1 http://www.jak-software.de/lp1657567 ubuntu.iso Before: E: Failed to fetch http://www.jak-software.de/lp1657567 The HTTP server sent an invalid Content-Range header Bad header data After: Redirect is followed successfully and a zesty live image is being downloaded.
